Hi, my name is Barry T. Smith, and I am InkTank.

Well, actually, InkTank is me. Or, InkTank was this site, then I was InkTank, and now InkTank is the strip on the site … and me.

That is to say, the comic strip character, InkTank is based on me and my life. It is mostly factual, with some details changed to protect the innocent … and the guilty. It is a look at my day to day life working in the tech field in California. I take my ideas not only from my immediate surroundings and events, but from my past and from those moments when I look back and say “Ohhhh, I should have said …” as a snappy comeback.

But, since the strip is still in its infancy, I will let it speak for itself for the moment. Hopefully, after some time, this page will warrant closer attention and I’ll have even more to talk about.
